Bama Officiating….

I saw holding penalties against our players for extending their arms, more or less straight. Is that holding? Maybe it is; I don't know, but the referees were not flagging the Alabama players for doing that and worse. There was a no-call when a bammer DB had his left arm completely around the waist of our receiver at the edge of the endzone. The defender's arm was curled tightly around our player so far that his hand disappeared on the other side of the receiver's waist, from a direct camera view of the play. The Alabama defender literally held our receiver, but there was no call for pass interference. That is seven points off our score on that one play alone, and there were others.
 
No way they only committed one infraction all game. Against an aggressive pass rush, they never got a holding call. They were quick to call us for holding a receiver when we stopped them on 3rd down though. They were quick to notice one return man gave the hands out and down fair catch signal while the other one caught the kick and ran to the 23. They were quick to spot the ball short on nearly every close 3rd down run. They did not call an even game by any means. They had their hats on inside out. The A was on the inside!
 
Vols are not alone regarding the crap officiating …..LSU fans saw it too. 💩ass bammers are the worst of the worst
Hopefully the schools not named Alabama will get some cajones and call it out as a collective... we aren't the only ones getting jobbed by Bama favoritism.

The one flag thrown on Bama and the whistle blown to stop play was also incorrect. They called illegal procedure.
Wrong..The ball was snapped when Milroe wasn't looking. Nothing else happened. The play should have continued, Tennessee would have sacked him or scooped and scored.
This right here how is that a false start or what ever they called it . Center snapped the ball Bama wasnt ready got blown dead helped them alot . Any game that I have ever seen thats a play usally bad for the offense

As I said last week, when the Vols win they should get credit for two wins one against the scheduled team and one against the zebras.

HOWEVER, no matter how corrupt the officiating is it wasn't the officials who told the O and D lines to start playing soft after the half. There is no half time speech or adjustment that has you going from exerting your will to the point of driving opposing linemen back into the QB to getting pushed a yard and half back. Not buying into the system and team enough to stay focused and play full bore for 60 minutes is what caused that result. Even if the refs did force the tone of the game to change.

At minimum Bama should have had 2 penalties for 15 yards if this one isn’t missed.
I saw at LEAST 4 bama defenders sling our players down. No Calls. I watched Fsu vs Duke and they called Fsu for slinging the duke RB down. I KNEW Tennessee would get jobbed at Alabama, it's been that way since I can remember which is 1971! On the bama TD, their Olineman was Holding the UT rusher by the shirt, easy to see, and the Ref was looking right at it! It's Bullshat, and it's going to continue ; evidently. That's 2 weeks of getting screwed by the Officials. Disagree all you want, and If you do, YOU are full of Bullshat too. (and in need of a good slap) (the actual spelling got edited by VN) wth.

It’s obvious White was being held here while ball was in mid air. They could have called a PI or hold here, but nothing. IMG_8922.jpegimage000000.jpeg
This was a straight hit job. Right in front of the head ref and he sits there and watches it and allows it. They wasn’t even trying to hide it.

Yep, In plain view of the Head Official. Obviously afraid of Saban, Or Instructed to call it for bama by Stinky. I have watch bama "Win" probably 100 games where they had officials help. And HOLDING by the Oline & DBS is their calling card. They are taught to hold. Cheating SOBS.
 
If you are Alabama and are getting hammered at the half in all phases of the game then what is the halftime strategy?

Try to make some plays but hold more and make the officials call it. They didn't and clearly wasn't going to. Hold the d-lineman, and hold receivers. Even reset the ball in close calls in Alabama's favor.

If the coaches or administration say nothing, then it disapates in time like it never happened.

Remember the roughing the passer on Darrell Taylor that wasn't in a tight game. That was one call. This game there was several ignores by the umps for the gumps.

Fake News regarding the ref who sells real estate in
Tuscaloosa

The referee everyone is claiming is a real estate salesman in Tuscaloosa is Fake News. Ken Williamson
lives in Tampa.
There is a Ken Williamson who sells real estate in Tuscaloosa, but it's a toally different Ken Williamson.
Apparently, the Ken who lives in Tuscaloosa gets grief from Tennessee fans on social media every year. @

Every year?
Why do they have the same crew on that game every year?
 
Our coaches tried to sit on a lead and stopped doing what got us in the lead.
Naw.
We hit a few plays and Milton stayed comfortable.
He missed some early in the second and he got tight.

Pretty much what he does
Probably need to have him run some people over early in the 2nd half to knock the nerves off from now on
